the Governor is obliged to cut down
these appropriations to an alarming
extent. There is much talk of calling
the legislature together for the pur.
pose of correcting this blunder, but
the Governor is said to he unalterably
opposed to such a course. Should
there be an extra session the members
would be entitled to $500 each, but
many of them have signilied their
willingness to 60 back and make the
proper correction, taking only their
actual legitimate expenses. This
would be right; more than that would
be wrong, under the circumstances.
The failure o. the revenue bill iakcI
with it the wholesome legislation sIg.
gested by the convention of the comfy
commissioners held at Harrisburg last
summer, as every recon mendation
made by that body had been iDcorpo-
rated in the measure. Its failure,
therefore, adds to the disappointment
felt by the counties throughout the
entire State.

A Big Mistake.

Last week Governor Beaver took
up the general revenue bill, passed in
the last hours of the legislature, for
the purpose of attaching his signature
to it, when the startling discovery was
made that the bill had not been signed
by the President of the Senate. With.
out going a step farther this omission
killed the bill "deader than q door
nail" The question then occurred,
who was to blame for this blunder, if
blunder it was. When bill passes
both branches Of the legislature finally,
it is the duty Of the Message Clerk of
the branch in which it originated to
take it to member of the compare
bill committee for his signature, then
to the chief clerk for his signature.
1t is then his duty to take it to the
speakers of both Houses, whose duties
it is to announce in open session that
they are about to sign such and such
a bill, and after they have signed it,
the bill is then delivered by the mes.
sage clerk to the Governor. This
doesn't seem like great deal of work,
but when it is considered that from
fifty to three times that number are
generally left for the last ten or twelve
hours of the session to be gone through
with in this way one can imagine how
a single clerk is kept on the jump,
and how easily an oversight of this
kind could occur. And these are NOT
all the duties devolving on said clerk
he is obliged to deliver scores of other
messages between the two Houses
The wonder is, then, that many more
errors do not occur. Yet with all this
Message Clerk of the House, Thos. r
Taylor, made not single blunder
and got through with his work in an
exceptionally creditable manner, and
the attempt to place the blame of the
failure to have this bill properly sign
ed upon him viii! scarcely stick, par
ticularly as be makes affidavit to th,
fact of having properly presented i
for the signature Of the President o
the Senate, and when it was handed
back to him, without doubling for {
moment that it had received the same
messaged it over to the Governor
Just where the blame lies has not, anC
perhaps never will be, discovered
And it don't matter much now, for i
is too late to correct it, and the new
revenue bill, which was expected t,
correct many evils and bring sufficien
additional revenue into the state treas
ury to meet all worthy appropriation
bills passed by the recent legislatur
has failed. The natural result is tina

Supreme Judseship.

The Evening ErpreSS, of Lock Ha.
ven, Pa, has the following concerning
the candidacy of Judge Williams:
The candidacy of Judge Williams
for the place on the Supreme Bench,
to be made vacant by the expiration
of the term of Judge Mercur, seems
to be meeting with general favor
among members of the bar all over
the state. Among the counties in
which the bar has endorsed his candi.
dacy may be mentioned Tioga, Potter,
Mexican, Lycoming, Cameron, Elk
and Crawford and we understand that
large majority of the bar of this
county is earnestly supporting him.
Among the reasons we hear given for
this general support of the bar are the
following:
His age-He is now 56 years old,
just in the prime of life and in good
health.
His experience in the Common
Pleas--He was elected at the age of
"a, and has now served over twenty.
two years continuously.
His knowledge of the land law
His whole professional and official
life has been spent in region where
original titles are often brought un.
der examination in the coults.
His familiarity with the law relat.
ing to oil and mineral rights-All
five of the counties of the old fourth
district are mining counties; while
what is known as the great northern
oil field is almost wholly in the same
district.
Judge Williams has the reputation
in the oil regions of having coutribu.
ted as largely towards the settlement
of the novel and perplexing questions
growing out of the business of pro.
ducing and transporting oil as any
Judge in the Commonwealth. There
are certainly strong reasons and are
we'll calculated to affect the judgment
of lawyers and business men.

Chance for AN Extra Session.

New YORK, March S.-The Tribune's
Washington special says: People whose
counsel is frequently sought for at the
White House, assure me that the Presi-
dent, though anxious to avoid it il posi-
BILE, still contemplates an extra session Of
Congress in the early Autumn. AS one o!
the evils it will be necessary to face. the
financial situation it is expected will be
then such as to need prompt action on the
part of Congress. With regard to the
surplus such action will not only be de-
sirable, but absolutely necessary. The
failure OF the River and Harbor and Def
cheney bills becomes more serious as time
passes. There is also a we'll grounded fear
entertained at the White House that the
Interstate Commerce Act once put in OPP
Grafton will cause no end of trouble and
litigation. and that its provisions will need
to be radically amended and promptly by
Congress.

The Carson Appeal hopes the law pro-

enforced. Carson is full Of sallow-faced
hollow chested, spindle.shanked boys who
are wasting their brains and bodies trying
TO suck the nicotine out Of cigars.
They make the mistake OF thinking they
can become men earlier. by embracing
mems bad habits, not seeming to realize
that they are following the very course
that will keep their growth back several
years.
II you want to be q man early In life.
let tobacco and whisky alone and you will
reach mans estate much quicker. Get
your growth first and smoke afterwards.
II You try the other way you will make q
sad failure. The youthful smokers are
enervated, nerveless, f~iascos, who are
blighted in boyhood, and whose future is
certain to be one OF sickness and weak
ness until they die.
II you wait q few years, smoking will
not have such o bad effect. A man Of 80
can stand tobacco, but q boy Of 16 cannot.
and the boy who tries IL, will, at 25
have plenty Of time to regret it. Every
boy who, when under IS, persits in ruin

with tobacco, ought to have his foolish
